Want to connect with your western Montana open lands? Join us for events, workshops, and volunteering opportunities! This list will be updated throughout the year:
Support western Montana's wildlife, agriculture, and community open spaces by supporting Five Valleys during GivingTuesday. This worldwide, 24-hour day of giving supports the nonprofits that make our communities stronger, healthier, and more resilient. On December 2nd, follow our campaign here on our website and our social media!
You won't want to miss our annual holiday party! Join us and our community for appetizers, beer and wine, a hot cocoa bar, a Volunteer Appreciation Raffle, and holiday cheer as we celebrate our conservation successes. This event is free and open to the public. We hope to see you there! Questions? Contact Lena at lena@fvlt.org.
Meet us in Philipsburg to celebrate the season and our conservation successes in the Flint Creek Valley. We’ll host drinks and appetizers at the Philipsburg Opera House from 4pm-5:30pm. After, meet us for the Yule Night parade down Main Street and catch a Twinkie from the Five Valleys float! Questions? Contact Lena at lena@fvlt.org.
Join us and our friends at Run Wild Missoula for Tales from the Trails, a new, seasonal trail running series that shares the story about your favorite Missoula-area trails. As we meander through these community open spaces, we’ll pause along the way to hear the story behind the land: how it came to be protected, what it means for public access, and why open spaces like this matter to Missoula. This series is open to Run Wild Missoula members only. Come run, listen, and connect with the places that make Missoula wild! Register and learn more.
Join us for our largest event of the year: our 30th(!) Annual Banquet & Auction. This event brings together supporters and friends from across western Montana to celebrate and support private land conservation. Tickets will go on sale in spring 2026. Questions? Contact Sophie at sophie@fvlt.org.
